232.6 today

JulieG (nu2ywg) checking in at 217. That's down 3 from last week but 1 from the start because I had gained 2 last week. A lot of ground to cover in the next couple weeks!

And btw Larry, hormonal changes in a woman can affect a lot...fat contains a lot of estrogen. Losing fat is certain to affect a woman significantly. Many woman can retain up to 5lbs of Water when approaching their time of the month. Since losing 100lbs I think I have started ovulating again and find that now twice in the month I fluctuate...I also have a harder time controlling cravings during those times too...so while I understand your sarcasm, there is some validity in my complaint last week. I checked around Wednesday and was actually up to 222 and definitely haven't done anything miraculous to be 217 this morning. I'm certainly relieved though!

hoping this week will be better. I'm not traveling at all which means I can hit the gym regularly & cook at home.

It's beed a tough week. I was retaining Water most of last week so I only lost 0.2 lbs. And this week is going to be tough too because I will be starting regular food and my kids birthday party is this weekend. (My son will be 6 tomorrow and my daughter 3 next month! ) I am going to try not to over do it though. Planning on one small slice of cake and one small slice of pizza at the party. I am doing well so far with not drinking while eating and at first that was a HUGE challenge for me so I am proud of that.

Very funny Larry...you should be happy you don't have to worry about that as it can be very frustrating. No offense taken.

If I just maintaine, I will be very happy.....my mom is not doing too well.....and UCLA has a cafeteria, where each meal cost 10.00....Yeah it beats staying in a hotel, but I guess the statement "ain't nothing for free rings loud and steady in the land of the blue and gold"!

any way.......I guess I am just trying to maintain...(I really need a fill), but because I am unemployed, (trying desperately to find a job)...I guess the best I'm gonna do is maintane! Hey!!!!!!you know what? Back in the old days, I never maintaned"! Could it be I am starting to see the glass as half full?????? Hell no! I am not that dumb! Anyway....thank you all for listening to my 'spcheeeeeel' I promise to keep trying!

And for Elvis....In memory of........."Thank yu.....Thank yu Very much!"
